Items in add/remove program list that don't go away

Ok, here is a problem I have, I dunno if anyone else experiences this. My add/remove programs list has some items that I have already uninstalled, but do not remove themselves from this list. Any suggestions?

na, not spyware.

something went wrong when u installed it and something is now left over.

go and download a program called 'tweak ui' from downloads.com or microsoft.com

it has an option that will let u take stuff off of add/remove.

This is the second time today that someone has told me Tweak UI can do something for me and I can't find it. First, I could increase the number of things i save simultaneously (Save As, Save Target As.....) and now this. Where in Tweak UI can I find these things. Much, much appreciated. Thanks.

The uninstallers for the installed softwares can be found here in the registry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall

Under this location every uninstaller has a key. You just have to delete it (it's easy to find it out which one you have to delete, 'cause the key naming is pretty obvious... )

Hope it helps...

I don't think that this is a function of TweakUI anymore. You could do this with TweakUI under Win9x but the XP version lacks this capability.
